As a debut film, it is rare to be able to shoot at such a level, and this film also shows the rise of a ghost director.

Non-linear narrative, interlude, "Reservoir Dogs" has a very "stage play" feel, just like "you sing, I will appear" as said in A Dream of Red Mansions;
whether it is the camera or the set, maybe this film and 94 Compared with the "Pulp Fiction" of 2008, it is still a little "naive", but the personal brand of "Quentin Tarantino" in the whole film is also very obvious. Of course, people who like Hong Kong films can also see the director's personal identity. Taste, as well as many elements that pay homage to the Hong Kong police and gangster films of the past century, and the tribute to Zhao in the later "Kill Bill" is a later story.

Although this is a movie from 22 years ago, today, in addition to the 'retro' switching of lenses, there are many highlights in the whole movie. The so-called classic movie is probably like this, and it will not fade after many years. , Quentin's movies, not talking about "literature", are very vulgar, like self-irony in pulp fiction, watching Quentin's past movies is like watching a little ruffian talking about his little things, point Big things can always be filled with excitement and drool when he talks about them.

The good old Mr.White, the perverted handsome Mr.Blond, and our sea pianist (Tim Roth) Mr.Orange, and a serious gag (Steve Buscemi) Mr.Pink who brought a lot of jokes to everyone, and of course There must be Mr.Brown (Quentin himself) who is familiar with the lunch box in his movies as usual. After watching the whole film, one of the most impressive ones, except for the final comeback scene, is probably the one that Mr.Pink has been talking about all the time.” Get out of the way! Let the professionals come!" Throughout the whole film, he is still the most Professional, "the one who has the last laugh".

Looking at the film, it's like playing the "who's undercover?" killing game, and the standard ending that may not seem so shocking today,

"I'm sorry, I'm a cop."

  • Mr. Pink: Look, I ordered coffee. Now we've been here a long fucking time and she's only filled my cup three times. When I order coffee, I want it filled *six* times.

    Mr. Blonde: Six times. Well, what if she's too fucking busy?

    Mr. Pink: The words "too fucking busy" shouldn't be in a waitress's vocabulary.

    Nice Guy Eddie: Excuse me, Mr. Pink, but I think the last fucking thing you need is another cup of coffee.

    Nice Guy Eddie: Why not?
